Name: Rob Gardner
Age: 41
Occupation: Quality Assurance/Tennis Instructor

Condition: Partial bursal surface tear in right shoulder; Degenerative change around acromioclavicular joint; Marked tendonosis.

Background:  Initially injured shoulder over 15 years ago, moving  heavy equipment.  Subsequent years of athletic activity caused the injury to progressively worsen. Eventually the pain became unbearable.  A little over a year ago, he sought medical attention and was given a cortisone shot. However, the success was limited and some pain still lingered.  Finally, a friend referred Rob to Sollay. Within three thirty-minute advanced therapy laser treatments, not only was the pain gone, but his range of motion increased significantly. Rob has enjoyed teaching tennis, playing basketball, and bicycling. Now, he enjoys these activities even more without the lingering pain.   

Quote: “The care Sollay provided was exceptional, but the results were even better.”

Name: Brian Palmer
Age: 44
Condition: Muscle Strain (Mid Back)

As a professional painter and remodeling contractor, Brian is constantly putting strain on his back.  On this occasion, he caught a piece of cabinetry and prevented it from falling and injuring anyone on the jobsite.  In doing this, he suffered a deep strain in his back muscles.  After two Sollay sessions, the swelling and pain subsided, and he was able to continue working.  Because of the extent of the strain, 3 more sessions were given to ensure that healing would continue.  Brian enjoys golf, coaching baseball with Hereford Rec. and spending time with his wife and 5 children.

Quote: “Sollay was very relaxing, the staff was professional and friendly, and I experienced immediate results.”

Name: Caryn Piechowski
Age: 32
Condition:  Right Hip Flexor, Muscle Strain

Caryn works as a property manager for Tower Management, as a hobby she rides horses and competes in equestrian competitions. She suffered a strain in her hip flexor muscle due to a fall when preparing for a competition.  After an uncomfortable and mostly sleepless night, she came to Sollay and had treatment the very next morning.  Right away, she saw results.  Sollay continued to heal the area for the next 24 hours, and Caryn slept soundly, awoke pain free, and competed and placed 5th in the Equestrian event.

Quote: “I could not believe with only one treatment the pain was completely gone.  Not only was I able to compete, I placed.  I would recommend Sollay therapy to anyone with pain.”

Name: Chelsea Baker
Age: 14
Activities: Competitive Gymnast, Cheerleader

Chelsea competes nationally on the junior gymnastics circuit as well cheerleading as a member of the varsity squad at Perry Hall High School.  In September, Chelsea suffered a fracture of a metatarsal bone in her foot.  After receiving treatment on the break, she began regular laser treatments over the next 2 months.  The treatments caused the pain and swelling to subside almost immediately, and also allowed Chelsea to continue a non impact cardio training routine preventing muscle loss and atrophy during the recovery process.  Upon receiving the ok to compete again from an orthopedic surgeon, Chelsea placed 3rd in a regional competition in Florida, and continues to compete with no pain.
